Paul Simon - Stranger to Stranger lyrics

Stranger to stranger, if we met
For the first time, this time
Could you imagine us falling in love again?
Words and melody, so the old story goes
Fall from summer trees when the wind blows

I can't wait to see you
Walk across my doorway
I cannot be held accountable for the
Things I do or say
I'm just jittery, I'm just jittery
It's just a way of dealing with my joy
It's just a way of dealing with my joy
It's just a way of dealing
Words and melodies easy harmony
Old-time remedies

All in good time, although most of the time
It's just hard working
The same piece of clay day after day
Year after year
Certain melodies tear your heart apart
Reconstruction is a lonesome art

But I love to watch you
Walk across my doorway
I cannot be held accountable for the
Things I do or say
I'm just jittery, I'm just jittery
It's just a way of dealing with my joy
It's just a way of dealing with my joy
Just a way of dealing with my joy
Words and melody

Stranger to stranger, if we met
For the first time, this time
Could you imagine us falling in love again?
Still believing that love endures
All the carnage and the useless detours

Oh I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, love you, love you

Words and melody easy harmony
Words and melody
